September's Inside the Wild explores the remarkable life cycle and migration of one of North America’s most recognizable insects, Monarch Butterflies. Participants will learn key STEM concepts including metamorphosis, life cycle stages (egg, larva, pupa, adult), migration, and pollination, while examining the monarch’s reliance on milkweed and nectar plants. Through hands-on activities and guided exploration, students will investigate how habitat loss, environmental change, and food webs affect monarch populations and discover how conservation actions can support pollinators. This session builds scientific vocabulary, systems thinking, and environmental stewardship.
